QlikView can connect to a wide variety of databases and file formats through standard interfaces and combine the data within them within in-memory “views”.  You can also connect to what QlikView calls “inline” data – data entered manually which is particularly useful for lookup or reference tables not stored in the database. As data is loaded, it is very efficiently compressed and a series of specific pointers to data are created. This use of pointer references mixed with the compression process means that previously large and unwieldy databases can be reduced dramatically in size (e.g. by a factor of 100:1). With this and QlikView’s own patented analytic data engine you could solve data consolidation issues without the need for a data warehouse.  Once you have the data you can start to build up the sheets that make up the user interface – adding data, charts, buttons, dashboards.  The whole process is easy to use and lightning fast - you have to see it to believe it and you don’t just have to take our word for it - The Butler Group comments on the deployment of QlikView here:-  The value of QlikView lies in its rapid learning curve, and the substantial reduction in the time taken to deploy and customize data analysis projects. Because the product has an intuitive point-and-click interface, users can become productive after only limited training, rather than taking weeks to get up and running.
